Return to Raleigh

Hey Everyone!

We are back home in Raleigh after a stress free day of flights from Baku, Azerbaijan to Istanbul to Boston to Raleigh.

The blog is about a month behind. Look for posts from the Caucasus (Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan) in the coming weeks. Not to mention we still owe you reports on our visit to Italy last Fall.

It's good to be home. Thanks for reading!
